The all-purpose
telephoto zoom for EF-S mount EOS cameras.

Affordable, powerful telephoto zoom
The EF-S 55-250mm f/4-5.6 IS is a telephoto zoom lens combining powerful
performance with high image quality. With a focal length equivalent of
88-400mm in 35mm format, it is ideal for photographers seeking an
affordable, versatile lens for general-purpose telephoto photography.

Image Stabilizer with automatic panning detection
To combat the effects of camera shake, the EF-S 55-250mm f/4-5.6 IS
incorporates Canon’s latest 4-stop compensation Image Stabilizer
technology. This allows the use of shutter speeds up to 4 times slower
with no perceptible increase in image blur. Automatic panning detection
automatically turns off the Image Stabilizer in either the horizontal or
vertical direction when following moving subjects.
